From the New York Times bestselling author of Dorothy Must Die comes a thrilling, Maleficent-esque twist on "The Snow Queen" from the "villain's" point of view that's equal parts love story and Frozen—all grown up.

Seventeen-year-old Snow has spent her life locked in the Whittaker Psychiatric Institute, but deep down, she knows she doesn't belong there. When she meets a mysterious new orderly and dreams about a strange twisted tree, she realizes she must escape and figure out who she really is.
After Snow breaks free and races into the nearby woods, she stumbles into icy Algid—her true home—with witches, thieves, and a strangely alluring boy named Kai, none of whom she's sure she can trust. As secrets are revealed, Snow discovers that she's on the run from a royal lineage she's destined to inherit, a father more ruthless than she could have imagined, and choices of the heart that could change everything . . . including Snow's return to the world she once knew.
With Algid's fate resting in her hands, will Snow embrace her destiny, even it means paying the ultimate price?
This breathtaking, New York Times bestselling volume begins the story of how Snow becomes a villain, a queen, and a hero.

      Paige (Dorothy Must Die) pivots from Oz to fairy tales in this underwhelming offering based on The Snow Queen. Whittaker Psychiatric Institute has been 17-year-old Snow’s home since she was six and tried to walk through a mirror with her best friend, mistaking it for the “looking glass” in Alice in Wonderland. Snow’s love for a fire-obsessed fellow patient, Bale, makes life bearable. When she breaks into his room one night, he’s dragged into a window-turned-mirror; Snow then escapes Whittaker and is drawn into the magical, icy world of Algid. To find Bale, she makes a deal with a boy named Jagger and must confront her true destiny. Snow’s devotion to Bale isn’t given much substance (nor is he), lending little backbone to Snow’s quest, which mechanically ticks off familiar boxes: Snow learns she has a magical talent, must use it to vanquish foes, and reluctantly develops feelings for another. There isn’t anything inherently wrong with the ordinary-girl-discovers-she’s-extraordinary trope, but Paige doesn’t do much to enliven it in this fairy tale twist. Ages 14–up. Agent: Joanna Volpe, New Leaf Literary & Media.
